the current playlist - for rosemary

no cars go - arcade fire (neon bible version) because it's just so damn great.
goodnight and go - imogen heap i'm definitely partial to hide and seek (where are we? what the hell is going on?) but this is pretty. it's just sort of unabashedly girly like walking through the lulu guinness spot in the fragrance section of bloomies at christmastime. which is somehow annoying, and somehow also completely ethereal, unavoidable, bliss.
pictures - sia because everyone's a current to an ex.
head home - midlake this makes me think of fall. fall in dc, or late summer in dc, but not so much the miserable part as the shipwreck part. it makes me think of the old wednesdays and the malay place. and bug bites. and it makes me smile.
lake marie - john prine i love this song. i just love this song. i adore this song.
sons and daughters - the decemberists i agree, roz. about all of it : )
astral weeks - van morrison because i'm falling in love. and because we both adore vm. and jenzo, remember the lantern-bed-rigging in beantown?
at the bottom of everything - bright eyes ohhh i love the imagery in this song. "We must hang up in the belfry
where the bats and moonlight laugh"
daniella - john butler trio it's dani's themesong!!! minus "you got what i want, why don't you give it to me." only john butler trio is way cooler than stupid ray.
secret hour - birdie busch i'm girly. and i love this one.
bunny ain't no kind of rider - of montreal theme song
officer - kate earl highway 280 in afternoon traffic and trying to find a parking spot at the wal-mart. there are so few people who understand that in my current life. but this song is that moment.
she moves in secret ways - polly paulusma sort of like birdie busch, only it reminds me of d.c.
the well and the lighthouse - arcade fire loooooooooooooooooove it.
fidelity - regina spektor have you seen the you tube video??? such a great song. and duck and i don't launch into an argument about samson (we really have to look that stuff up) when we hear it. it's a great shower song too : )
soft and warm - voxtrot i LOVE vox. as you know. but i love this song as much as "the start of something" -- thanks to corn for that.
(songs for my) sugar spun sister - the stone roses sentimentality : )
last night i dreamt of mississippi - nicolai dunger because, really, last night i dreamt of mississippi. i listen to this on the subway when i'm feeling overwhelmed and suddenly some tourists from home trip on and you can tell they're from home not because they look lost, but because they look NICE. because the men simply WON'T sit down (because there are LADIES to sit down) and because the women are always done up. not tacky like riverchase done up, but pretty like mountain brook or buckhead done up. like kay. like linger longer road done up.
alfie - lily allen ohh i love this. dno't watch the video though. i can't get the flashing puppet out of my head.
travelin thru - dolly parton theme song.
neighborhood #1: tunnels - arcade fire theme theme theme very special theme song.
